NEW HOBBIT HAS ARRIVED …

This time an UNWIN Paperbacks Hobbit, printed and bound in Canada, arrived.
But in what year? Book says Third Edition 1966, ISBN says about 1975, but seen the price (Canadian $ 2,75) this book must have been for sale in 1980 or a little later.

Who knows the exact year?

This Hobbit is # 654 in my Hobbit collection.
